How to Make an Impossible Card
Today’s project is one where the name is simply so deceiving–it’s called the Impossible Card but truthfully it’s so impossibly simple to do! Usually, my love of crafting resonates strongly with my daughter but this card was way more in my son’s wheelhouse this time around. This design is based on a popular magic trick called the Hypercard Illusion trick and is one he himself has done (but it didn’t look as pretty!) Today I’m going to show you how simple it is to do so you can create your own.

Home Is Where the Heart Is Card
Tomorrow I leave for Las Vegas for Close To My Heart’s Annual Convention. I felt like this swap card I received from Linda Black best represented the feeling of Convention.

It’s like the best family reunion–one that you definitely don’t want to miss out on! I look forward to attending it each year.
